I have never reloaded belted cartridges before and was wondering if there is anything that i should be aware of when resizing the 7mm mag cartridges.

I am not aware of anything special to worry about when loading belted cartridges. I have very limited experience however. I only reload for 1 belted magnum, a .338 win mag. I reload for my .338 Win Mag the same way as I reload my non belted cartridges (.270, .243, .222, 22-250). However, I only reload brass that has been shot in my rifles and I only neck size the cartridges for my bolt actions. The only cartridges that I full length resize are the 30-06 rounds for my M1 Garand.

I use to own a 7mm Rem Mag and handloaded for it for many years. I would recommend adjusting the resizing die down until it touches the shellholder. The reason being that if I didn't, they would be a little hard to chamber.  I also found that I needed to trim my casing after the second shot. I most likely would still have a 7mm Rem Mag but used it for a wildcat project, my 8mm Grizzly.

I have several boxes of empty brass for the 7 MM mag, and a set of dies, I use to reload for the rifle I owned, sold it late last year. Now I hve the brass , bullets and dies for sale if you are interested?

I never had any problems with loading from the charts , I shot Nosler Partation bullets in the 150 and 175 to 180 garin range.
